We all have jobs and most jobs result in bad days. But calling somebody an ass seems out of line to me. I don't think Simon deserved that. It discourages contributions. I Hope my opinion doesn't harm

Every day, I have looked forward to searching eBay for MGB stuff. It was good fun. But eBay has been reworked. Now it looks like only about 10 items at a time will fit on the screen where a lot more

I had the same problem and carefully bent it with my bare hands. It was only bent about 1/2" and the internal bracing wasn't bent. It didn't take much force to bend it. When bending it, be careful no

I like SUV's and other behemoths on the road. They provide shade at stop lights. They are slalom obstacles on multilane roads. They are targets for unsafe high speed merging, failing to yield, runnin

Hello All, I am patching some small rust holes in the floor of my '71B. There were two snap-like fittings on the part of the floor that slopes up to the firewall (under the clutch and brake pedals).

Kelvin, Max, Ed, and Allen thanks for your replies. Maybe they are snaps, but here is why I have doubt and confusion: There are two of these in each footwell. They are not at the inboard or outboard

I like your theory. I think I will leave the holes and plug them after I paint the car. If I figure out what they were for someday, I can add them then. In the meantime I must make more progress. Thi

On my wings, that beading is welded to the wings. The wing attaches with some shims to the scuttle (I mistakenly called it the facia before). The beading is above these shims/spacers. The caulk was b

Many thanks to everyone who sent me replies. The consensus was that seam sealer is used under the T-section to prevent these water leaks into the footwells. And now I know not to glue the carpets dow

My car had rubber mats on the floor and a carpet kit in a box when I bought the car. No instructions. The snaps weren't in the box but laying loose in the boot. I wasn't sure what they were. Didn't r

I like their Speed-Shine stuff. It isn't too expensive if bought by the gallon. Cleans my black un-British car really good when dusty and gets rid of swirl marks too. I hardly ever bathe it with wate

I guess I agree with the common opinion for the most part. But it would it is fair to point out that they do have some good to offer. I would need to be rich to buy as much Speed-Shine as I use, if I

For what it is worth it is fair to note that: 1) Mazda recommends anti-sieze on spark plugs for the aluminum head Miata engine. 2) I have a can of NAPA LockTight Anti-Sieze that is silver. But it sa

I think anti-sieze is prone to washing out when exposed to water, too. I used silicone grease on caliper pins, but haven't revisited the pins since. So I cant say if I did something stupid yet. It wa
